Request for Quotation Summary

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC) on July 31, 2026, for underwater testing and training services. The RFQ number is 80JSC026Q0010, issued to the address NASA Johnson Space Center, 2101 NASA Parkway, Houston, TX 77058, with contact Jaime, Katelyn R. (JSC-BH111). This is not a small business set-aside, and quotations are due by August 21, 2026. Quotations furnish information only and do not constitute offers; the government is not obligated to pay any costs related to submission or to award a contract.

The base requirement (Item 0001) is a 5-day capability demonstration performance service with a firm fixed price structure, scheduled from October 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027. Four options are also available: Option 1 (Item 0002) for one 5-day integrated analog mission (April 1 – December 31, 2027); Option 2 (Item 0003) for two 5-day integrated analog missions (January 1 – December 31, 2028); Option 3 (Item 0004) for four 10-day integrated analog missions (October 1, 2028 – September 30, 2029); and Option 4 (Item 0005) for three 12-day integrated analog missions (April 1 – September 30, 2030). All items use Product Service Code AR12 with firm fixed pricing and severability clauses. The total contract duration, including all option exercises, shall not exceed five years. Delivery terms specify FOB Destination with the contractor bearing transportation costs. Evaluation criteria prioritize technical acceptability over past performance, which in turn is more important than price; technical acceptability and past performance combined are significantly more important than price.
